Nifty 50 Gainers and Losers, July 27, 2026, 3:30 PM IST: Eternal, IndiGo Surge; ONGC Falls 4%

Mumbai July, 27: Eternal and IndiGo finished at the top of the Nifty 50 gainers’ list on July 27, 2026, as buying spread across consumer internet, aviation, information technology and financial stocks. Eternal rose 5.61% to ₹295.70, while IndiGo advanced 5.12% to ₹5,240 at the 3:30 PM IST close, according to exchange data.

The strength was not confined to the two leaders. Infosys and Bajaj Finance gained more than 3.5% each, while Max Healthcare advanced 3.30%. On the other side, ONGC was the clear outlier, sliding 4.17%, even as losses in most other Nifty laggards remained relatively contained.

Eternal’s move stood out both in percentage terms and trading activity. The stock opened at ₹281.50, climbed to ₹297 and eventually settled at ₹295.70, close to the upper end of the day’s range. About 4.80 crore shares changed hands.

IndiGo followed with a 5.12% gain after touching ₹5,242.50 during the session. Infosys provided support from the technology pack, while Bajaj Finance and Max Healthcare added financial services and healthcare names to what was a fairly diverse group of market leaders.

ONGC Leads Losers As Declines Remain Limited Elsewhere

Selling was much more concentrated on the losing side. ONGC dropped 4.17% to ₹238.39 from its previous close of ₹248.76, making it the steepest fall among the Nifty 50 stocks shown in the exchange data.

HDFC Life and HDFC Bank followed, but their declines were substantially smaller. Dr Reddy’s Laboratories and Power Grid slipped only marginally.

The gap between ONGC and the rest of the losers was striking. HDFC Life declined just 0.44%, HDFC Bank eased 0.36%, and Dr Reddy’s Laboratories finished 0.12% lower. Power Grid was almost flat with a 0.09% decline.

Coal India and Adani Ports also ended marginally in the red, down 0.05% and 0.03%, respectively.

Buying Broadens Beyond The Top Five Gainers

Several heavyweight stocks outside the top five also participated in the advance. Shriram Finance gained 3.27%, Asian Paints rose 2.73% and M&M added 2.49%. Bajaj Finserv and Maruti Suzuki were up 2.28% and 2.14%, respectively.

Large-cap IT stocks had a positive session as well. TCS gained 1.89%, HCL Technologies rose 1.88% and Wipro advanced 1.84%, alongside the stronger 3.59% move in Infosys.

The Eternal share price finishing at ₹295.70 after reaching ₹297 was particularly significant for the gainers’ table, while IndiGo’s move above ₹5,200 added further weight to the positive side of the market.

Conclusion

The Nifty 50 gainers and losers at the July 27 close showed a clear imbalance between the two sides. The leading gainers recorded sizeable moves, with Eternal and IndiGo advancing more than 5% and another three stocks gaining more than 3%.

Losses, by comparison, were largely shallow outside ONGC. The energy stock’s 4.17% decline stood apart from the rest of the laggards, while strength across IT, financial, auto and consumer-facing names gave the gainers’ list a broader character.
